Option D: 81 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find a number from the given options whose exponent 1/2 and 1/4 are integers.

First of all we have to exclude first two options with negative numbers as the exponents applied to these numbers will also give a negative number. So option A and option B are excluded

Now

for option C:

32 cannot be written as a square of any number so it is also excluded

We have to check the last option D: 81

Verification:

(81) ^{\frac{1}{2}} = ?\\=(9^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}\\= 9^{(2*\frac{1}{2})}\\= 9

(81) ^{\frac{1}{4}} = ?\\=(3^4)^{\frac{1}{4}}\\= 3^{(4*\frac{1}{4})}\\= 3

We can see that in cases of both exponents the number is an integer so

Option D: 81 is the correct answer

Zina [86]

Answer:

2 dimes, 1 nickel and 3 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of 2 postcards is $1. Any combination of coins that adds to $1 will work here. Remember, a penny is worth 0.01, a nickel is worth 0.05, a dime is worth 0.10, and a quarter is worth 0.25.

Adding 2 dimes, 1 nickel, and 3 quarters would be 2(0.10)+1(0.05)+3(0.25)=1.
